The distribution was scheduled for December but has been accelerated in light of the Fund’s upcoming investment objective change to mark a clear demarcation between the strategy of the existing currency fund and its conversion into a bond fund. Effective as of the market open on October 25, 2011, the WisdomTree Dreyfus New Zealand Dollar Fund (BNZ) will be renamed the WisdomTree Australia & New Zealand Debt Fund (AUNZ) and will offer broad-based exposure to local currency debt of Australia and New Zealand.
